Ridecamp: [RC] New Rig

Well, finally! after much research, and much waiting to "finish" it off,
yesterday Randy pulled up with my new Exiss Gooseneck.

I am scared to death! After a little bumper pull 13ft. stock trailer that I
wrecked by trying to back it on a straightaway, how am I ever going to
handle this???

Can anyone give me some words of encouragement or tips on driving this
without smashing it or some innocent victim?

I be pulling it with a Long Bed Dodge Ram, Cummings Diesel. The trailer is
22ft total. My first endurance ride is at Sunriver on June 14th. (Warning,
warning, warning!)

I will have no practice time as Randy is taking my truck and stock trailer
to Wisconsin this weekend and won't be back until june 12th. He is going to
drive me to Sunriver, so you folks there don't have to be too concerned when
I arrive.

Can any of you women hook one of these things up by yourself? Just the
Awning scares me. If anyone on ridecamp wants forwarning as to which rides I
will be attending please email me, and I will send out complete disclosures.
License plate, blah blah blah.
